HOUSTON - Since the fifth grade, Jada Malone has been accustomed to making the two hour trek up to College Station and settling into a seat inside Reed Arena to take in a Texas A&M women's basketball game.

Here first experience came when her older sister Micarah was going through her recruiting process. At the time, Micarah was being recruiting by Lamar and McNeese State but her father wanted to give her what a big college feel would be like. A few years later, Jada's cousin Courtney Williams suited up for the Aggies for four years.
